6.2 For Sale Feeler

[MaxPF]

I have decided to do the Cummins thing, so I am looking to unload my 6.2 project. That said, I won't give it away. While I realize I will never get out what I have into it, I am still looking to sell it for a reasonable amount.

Here's what I have and what has been done:

[Assembled short block]
* 1991 660 block, crack free, bored & honed .030 over
* Custom full length .500" thick main cap girdle
* 12mm ARP studs in ALL positions on the main caps
* New Melling HV 6.5 oil pump
* Brand new GM 6.5 crank machined to fit 2 piece 6.2 block (yes, really)
* rods resized, rebushed, shot-peened, and fitted with new GM rod bolts
* New .030" Mahle pistons w/rings
* Main bearings are Clevite, rods and cam bearings are Sealed Power
* Custom aluminum oil pan (to clear the girdle) with fittings for turbo
oil return and bypass filter return
* Good used stock camshaft
* Pete Jackson Gear Drive (PJ makes them for all the other vendors)
* New Sealed Power lifters
* New pushrods
* ARP head studs

The cylinder heads have not been final assembled yet, but here's what they have:

* New aftermarket castings
* New hardened intake seats and high nickel exhaust seats
* New wear resistant iron valve guides
* New SI valves (exhaust valves are stellite faced)
* Valves unshrouded - resulting volume increase yields 18:1
compression
* positive-type teflon valve guide seals
* big block valve rotators on all valves (spring seats machined
to accommodate rotators)
* Comp cams 1.462" diameter springs, 109# seat pressure
* Comp cams retainers and locks
* Comp cams 1.7" Magnum full roller rockers on custom tool steel shaft
setup. Head machined to retain custom shaft pedestals and will NOT
accept stock shafts
* New GM diamond precups

I also have the timing cover (installed), single water neck, non-egr single plane intake, and pretty much every other part that came with the donor engine.

Also included are a pair of crack free 6.5 turbo exhaust manifolds and a disassembled Holset HY-35 turbo. The turbo needs a rebuild kit but is otherwise in fine condition.


If this sounds like something you would be interested in, PM me with a reasonable offer.

Thanks,
Greg

Consider separating the heads from the engine? These seem very interesting, perhaps for a project I've got brewing. If its not too much trouble, would you send me some pictures of these heads and related components?

I'm not in the market for a 6.2L engine, but am curious on your build. You mentioned some effort on the connecting rods, with new bolts and pin bushings. How did you control rod length with the set? This is a very important issue.

He posted the build on CK5 under the same name . A lot of work !

I would prefer to keep the engine as an assembly for the time being. If there is no interest, then I will consider parting it out.

Thanks,
Greg

Do you still have the short block and everything else?

[MaxPF]

Nope. Sold the complete engine.
